- Description
With 'apologies to Schultz and Peanuts' the cartoon shows one female character from Peanuts who represents the Maori Party and holds a rugby ball printed with the words 'Maori TV World Cup coverage plans'. A second Peanuts-like character is Prime Minister John Key who hopes that this will fulfil expectations. Refers to the news that Maori Affairs Minister Pita Sharples has given his blessing for taxpayer funds to support a Maori Television Service bid for the 2011 Rugby World Cup's free-to-air broadcast rights, thought to be as high as $3 million. Maori TV is making a bid for free-to-air Rugby World Cup broadcast rights. John Key says that "It is my absolute expectation that all New Zealanders get an opportunity to view those 16 games free to air," forgetting conveniently that none of the other channels gets 100% coverage.
